Description of the new feature / enhancement

There should be 5 case toggling shortcuts, which when applied to a selected block of text changes their case:

  • Flip case, eg: gIThUB -> GitHub
  • All uppercase, eg: Usa -> USA
  • All lowercase, eg: LET FLAG=0 -> let flag=0
  • Sentence case, eg: he is at the school. -> He is at the school.
  • Capitalise first letter of each word, eg: the three musketeers -> The Three Musketeers

The user should be able to enable all or any combination of the above five case change operations as per their needs and requirements, alongside being able to set custom shortcuts of each of them.

Alternatively, a single shortcut, say, Win+CapsLock may open a context menu with the 5 case toggling options, each with a numeric key, to be selected from the keyboard.

Scenario when this would be used?

Any time when a user is working at fast pace, be it coding or writing emails, they may overlook Caps Lock indicator or whatever is on the screen. When a large block of text is already typed, and the case issues noticed, it is hectic and frustrating to rewrite the whole block in the opposite case.

Furthermore, the sentence case and capitalise first letter of each word modes allow an user to write a large block of text without regards for the case, that interrupts workflow, and can fix it all at the end with a single shortcut key. Such features are already available in MS Word.

Personally, I often write without noticing the Caps Lock indicator, or the rendering on the screen, and notice that I wrote in the wrong case more often than I'd like to admit. Case has a great significance when coding, writing emails, etc.
